Weeks ago, a courageous Palestinian activist, Bassam Eid, warned ASU students to reject any effort to resurrect the BDS resolution, writing, “Arizona State University… is under assault from anti-Israel radicals intent on demonizing Israel and the ASU Jewish community.”
Jewish groups at ASU only learned about the resolution on Friday afternoon, just hours before the start of Shabbat at sundown, when many Jews put away their electronics and do not work for 25 hours.
